harry truman read a lot of history, teddy roosevelt and so does barack obama and i think that's a really helpful thing. what history will tell you even though there is this second term curse idea, there's no great historic president without a second term. it's a huge opportunity because the country has already legitimized what you did in the first term as complicated as it might be during the recession. they wanted you back again. and now you've got a chance to build the base for the future. i mean ronald reagan built an electoral base that lasted for decades so did fdr. if he was able to have a democrat follow him four years from now then maybe the idea that government can be hipful to people, go back to what bob carry said that whole idea what we can do with collective action has returned because we've spent a couple decades with 9 idea that government was the enemy. that would be a big shift if that's possible. the only other thing i would say i think he needs to think about the economy even if it's beginning to recover there's still a problem for the manufacturing base not being here

barack obama got 71%. and if you just compare that to the last republican president, george bush, when he won re-election in 2004, he got 44%. you see that precipitous drop from george bush to mitt romney. there was a big drop from mccain, too. you see that abundantly clear. so what happened is, after they got crushed with latino voters, lindsey graham, republican senator from south carolina who has been working on this on and off for years, called up democrat chuck schumer and said let's restart some talks on comprehensive immigration and soon there was a group of -- core group of six bipartisan senators that formed. they met shortly after the election. they met five times, john mccain's office and chuck schumer's office. and they came up with what ended up as a pretty comprehensive bipartisan proposaproposal. there are some things left on the table but they got comfortable enough so that i'm told chuck schumer called the president yesterday and said we have this. we're going to unveil it and we're going

so president barack obama, who was my colleague in the senate before he was elected president and was a cosponsor of the dream act, said i am going to suspend the deportation of those young people who would be eligible under the dream act, and he did. it went into effect last august. congressman luis gutierrez of chicago is a great leader on this immigration reform. he and i held a workshop at navy pier, which is a big gathering place in chicago, in august for those who would be eligible for this deferral of deportation under the dream act. we never dreamed, mr. president, that they would start lining up at midnight the night before. they would stay out there all night long with their families, waiting for a chance to sign up. it was just such a heart-warming experience to know how much this meant, not only to the young person but many times to their undocumented parents who thought at least my child will get this chance. so some criticized the president for making this decision, but two-thirds of the american people, democrats and republicans alike, think it was the right decision, a
